Meet The Band

Natalie McGuinness

Natalie is from Poole in the UK and after a successful, professional performing career of over 20 years she decided to start Glitter Productions in 2010. Natalie started her career off as a professional dancer (classical ballet), but soon realised there were better perks on being a singer (!) and so after graduating in Performing Arts at Middlesex Univeristy in London, she continued her career as a pro singer. She has played the leading lady on various Cruise Lines, Musical Theatre including touring Mamma Mia! We Will Rock You, Grease and many more. She has worked with the likes of Peter Kaye, Pete Waterman and performed alongside many West End artists.

Natalie is extremely proud of Glitter Productions and 100% dedicated to producing fantastic Show Bands both in the UK and Sweden. She is also a very happy and busy Mum to her 4 kids Presley (6), Mimi Belle (5), Sonny Rox (4) and Jojo Red (1)!

Jim Bob McGuinness

Jim Bob was born in Gothenburg, Sweden and started to learn to play the guitar from a very young age. Growing up in a Rock ‘n’ Roll family with a father that released 6 albums in the 70’s and 80’s (yes, he was in the Swedish charts alongside ABBA themselves!) with Motvind, it was only a matter of time before Jim would become a professional performer himself. Throughout his early 20’s, Jim toured musicals such Hairspray, Mamma Mia! and Grease and also perfomed onboard various Cruise Liners. He now enjoys teaching his 6 year old son, Presley, how to play the guitar!

A showman to say the least, Jim Bob always gets the party started!

Märtha Boiertz

Märtha trained at Dans Forum in Gothenburg, Sweden and is an absolute joy to have on the team. Professional to say the least, she is a pure all-rounder in singing, acting and dancing. She has performed on various stages around Europe including Garbos’ Dinner Show in Gran Canaria and Cabaret Lorensburg in Gothenburg. Her Musical Theatre credits include ‘The Addams Famiily’ in Gothenburg and Malmo as well as ‘Charmoren fran Kangedrag at Gunnebo slott.

Märtha is a stunning performer with a voice that is so amazing it is difficult to distinguish the difference between her own and Anni-Frid from ABBA.

Anders Lundqvist

Gothenburg born Anders has been an all-round musician since the age of 13 with drums being his main passion back then. After almost making it as a pro football player, Anders toured Sweden for some time as a drummer with various bands and artists. However, one day a Fender Precision bass caught his eye who he called “Britta”, after a while Anders and “Britta” fell out and after going through a few more bass guitars he has found new love with a Music Man Stingray and she is called “Gunnel”.

Anders loyalty and dedication to his craft makes him an invaluable player and member of the Glitter Productions crew.

Johan Rask

Johan was 8 when he started playing drums after his dad bought him a small rock kit. But for some reason drums were not right for him at that time so he started playing the guitar instead. Then at 17 he started playing the drums more seriously again and loved it! So nowadays, multi talented Johan plays both guitar and drums and runs Rabbit Hole Studios in Brewhouse, Gothenburg. He has recently returned from a tour in Senegal with Vocalensemble Amanda where he not only performed, but also participated in and hosted various workshops for the residents.

An unbelievably talented drummer, technical, passionate and will never miss a beat!

Daniel Snell

Gothenburg based Daniel is a professional multi-instrumentalist who grew up in the very North of Sweden in a small village called Pajala. At a very young age he started playing the guitar and as his passion for music grew he also learnt to play the accordian, bass and saxophone. After graduating from Piteå Musikhögskola, he has toured the World as a full time musician and is booked nearly every day of the week as a session musician, music teacher or Glitter Productions band member!

Daniel is also the founder of Svensk Artist Faktura, the most popular choice for musical artists to get paid! Glitter Productions is so happy to have Daniel as a regular band member, he is incredibly technical and literally only needs to hear the most complex guitar solo once to be able to play it back perfectly!

Rick Oliver

A dream to the Glitter Productions team , Rick has written songs for the likes of Take That and All Saints as well as being signed to Fly Records and releasing an album in his own name hitting the UK charts. He has toured Europe with numerous legends and is one of London’s finest session guitarists. Not only that, he has played in the West End for the likes of the Blue Man Group London stage show.

Rick is not only a God at playing lead guitar, his wit and charm will blow your socks off!

Talented, good fun and professional, Simon is a stage show legend.

Chris Grainger

Chris has been playing drums since the age of 3! Born into a legendary musical family, it was non-negotiable that Chris would fall into the music industry after growing up sitting in on recording sessions and gigs with the likes of Roger Daltry, Ronnie Wood, Pete Townsend and Kenny Jones (with whom he recieved his very first drum lesson from!). He is talented beyond belief and dedicated to his profession and skill to the point when he will warm-up his drums even before a brief Abba set.
